Settling

from Bright Blues by Ripe

lyrics

ou get mad when
You get told to watch your tone
Yeah you get angry
But hold your breath while you count down
To not be angry
Easier to bite your tongue

Every time that you behave
Every time you play it safe
You can feel it getting harder

Still you’re
Waiting for things to get better
To get better
To get better but you’re not sure
If it’s now or it’s never
Or it’s never
If it’s never been done before
It might be kinda frightening
Waiting for things to get better
Feels a lot like settling

You’re still trying
But maybe if you let it go
And just stopped trying
Finally said what’s on your mind
To hell with timing
Is it easier to bite your tongue?
